Bill > HR779

This bill, called the "Stop Sexually Dangerous Predators Act," proposes several key changes to increase protections and tracking of individuals convicted of sexually violent offenses. The bill requires states to submit annual lists to the Attorney General detailing individuals convicted of sexually dangerous offenses, which will then be reviewed for potential federal prosecution. The legislation also introduces significant restrictions on federal healthcare benefits for individuals convicted of sexually violent offenses, specifically limiting their access to Medicaid and Medicare, with an exception for those receiving involuntary inpatient hospital treatment. Additionally, the bill amends the Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act to enhance sex offender registration requirements by mandating that registration information now include details about relevant court cases. These provisions aim to improve monitoring, accountability, and public safety regarding sexually dangerous persons by creating more comprehensive reporting mechanisms and reducing certain benefits for convicted offenders.
